Graphic tees are incredibly hot right now but many of these vintage inspired, worn-in shirts are $50 or even $100! I’ve been digging through the options and rounded up 20 solid picks for you that are under $20 (most under $15!) and nearly all of them can arrive at your doorstep in just a couple days!

MY TOP PICKS!
THESE Booties – I bought these in a 9 in the tan color (the dark snakeskin also looks amazing online!) and already worn them! They WILL be one of the first things to go so buy them ASAP!
These Snakeskin Booties — I sized up a 1/2 size (got a 9.5) and I normally wear a 9. Definitely run small in the toes, but they are SO good. These WILL sell out FAST!
Hunter Boots in Glossy Black — These RARELY go on sale!! I love the packable style because they’re easy to fold & take on trips. These are a MUST!
Snakeskin or Black Mules — I could hardly decide which to pick, but I went with the snakeskin because it feels SO high quality. The Vince mules went crazy fast last time. True to size!
THESE Mules (in Black, Light Pink, or YELLOW!) — You cannot beat the price or quality of these puppies! I bought the black (instead of the Vince black mules above) bc I already have the pink from last year and just bought a pair of yellow mules a month ago. I’d recommend any or ALL of the colors because they’re fantastic!
Gorgeous Black Ankle Bootie — The best designer piece I’ve found so far — sexy and sophisticated and will last you for years to come! Sized up 1/2 size (9.5 for me.)
Black Snakeskin Booties – These are phenomenal! Make your legs look a mile long & let you rock the trend without being too loud. They have cushion on the inside for an incredible fit! Size up 1/2 size (9.5 for me.)
Tory Burch Flip Flops – Bought these in white last year & loved them. Black or blush are perfect to wear now and as long as you want! TTS.
Leopard Print Booties – These are stunning in person! Gorgeous mid-level heel, high quality, and look beautiful on your feet!
Tory Burch Block Heel Sandals – Classic Tory Burch sandals that are great for year-round wear. Easy to walk in with the chunky black heels.
Stuart Weitzman OTK Boots – These cult-favorite designer boots rarely go on sale. The quality is excellent and they will last you for years to come!
Halogen Peep-Toe Bootie — So many colors (white, black, snakeskin, etc) – I think the WHITE is a must especially for this price!
Zebra Print Booties — I just discovered these! I wanna wear them with cutoff denim and a graphic band tee, but you could also pair them with a casual dress or black skinnies and a bodysuit.

The hottest sale of the year is happening NOW (or at least for many of you, within the next 24 hours) and I’m here to help you navigate the nearly 11,000 items on sale to save you time + money! I’ve shopped the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, now known as #NSale , for years but this is my first time to officially cover it. Small side note — I officially made the decision to start blogging last year after sharing all of my finds on IG stories and having an incredible response from friends!
I’m putting a lot of time + money into this to help you save yours, so I’d be HONORED and GRATEFUL if you clicked through any of my affiliate links before checking out to help me earn a small commission. It’s kinda like tipping your bartender, but the stuff I’ve found for you will bring you joy FARRR longer than a Moscow Mule and you don’t pay any extra (instead you save!)

Colorful prints are everywhere this summer, and florals are my favorite of all to style! Whether you go big & bold or soft & sweet, there are so many ways to add a touch of feminine to your wardrobe. This month, I’ve teamed up with The Ms. Collection, a personal styling and clothing rental subscription service, for this challenge.
With The Ms. Collection (or their men’s version, The Mr. Collection!) you receive four pieces per delivery and can wear them as often as you’d like based on your subscription and then send them back or buy what you love at a discounted rate. With each pack, you can let the stylists do all the work based on your style profile, or you an ask them to curate your items for a special trip, event, or theme — like I did this month!
Some things are best enjoyed in moderation (so they say!) so if you like flowers in small doses, try adding them to your jewelry or your feet! I paired this black off-shoulder blouse with white jeans for a casual, effortless look. I added neon floral pops of color with bright earrings and strappy heels. Extra points for using distressed denim, which makes for an interesting contrast with flowers! Of course I can’t leave out this purse — which is now 33% off and combines bright summer colors and the clear tote trend in one perfect little package!
Wanna keep your florals looking feminine? This sweet wrap dress fits the bill with its baby blue and pastel pink accents. I paired it with this awesome bucket bag (a steal at $50 compared to the designer $350 version!) and pulled the pastel pink into these burst-style earrings which mimic a floral shape.
I adore bold colors, so when I spotted this watercolor infused zip-up skirt in my The Ms. Collection pack, I was simply in love! When a pattern is bold, I like to keep other elements like this camisole and my shoes subtle. Accessories give you plenty of options to change the look, so whether you pull out a pop of color or keep it neutral with creams, the options are endless! I wore this outfit to The Blogger Closet Sale at Market Street and received endless compliments — score another win for The Ms. Collection! 🙂
Florals are naturally “soft”, so I like adding texture to floral outfits to create plenty of extra interest. The Ms. Collection sent me this pretty floral tie-waist dress that’s office and brunch appropriate, but I decided to take it in a totally different direction!
For this outfit, I popped on a floppy hat and grabbed a bamboo bag — both accessories are summer must-haves! Then I added suede leather sandals just to throw one more texture into the mix. I think the end result is fun and memorable!
The Ms. Collection makes keeping your wardrobe fresh and exciting SO simple! Signing up is easy and the on-boarding process is enjoyable. You answer a handful of questions about your personal style, likes / dislikes, preferred colors, etc. Then the personal stylist goes to work — and before you know it, The Mr. & Ms. Collection sends a pack of clothes and/or accessories to your doorstep!
There are a few membership options to choose from, ranging from $59 – $89 per month:
Each month, a $20 credit will be added to your account to apply toward any items you choose to purchase. It makes those discounted items an EVEN better deal!
And while we’re talking price: You can use my code “kelirabonstyle” for 20% off your first month — this works for both The Mr. & Ms. Collection!

This time of year is SO busy — summer vacations are starting, school is out, and each day is jam-packed with activities! It’s hard to make time to shop, so one of my favorite #lifehacks is teaming up with the stylists from The Ms. Collection to spruce up my wardrobe each month!
In March, I shared my first box from my partnership with The Ms. Collection, a personal styling and clothing rental subscription service that helps create a rotating wardrobe with fresh pieces that you can wear several times before sending back — or purchase what you love for a discounted rate! Guys can get in on the fun and convenience too by using The Mr. Collection.

THE CLOTHES
The Ms. Collection sent me five items in my latest pack. I can wear them the entire month and then purchase any of the pieces I really fall for at prices much less than retail:
* Closet London Belted Dress – $79
* BB Dakota Grey Knot Top – $40
* Tyche Lavender Tie Neck Blouse – $33
* Kut from the Kloth Denim Shorts – $62
* Luxe Couture Agate Necklace – $33
Every piece in this month’s pack exceeded my expectations! It’s no secret that bright, bold colors are a staple in my life — so when I pulled that red floral dress out of the box, I knew I was in love (LOL and that I’d definitely need that beauty in my life for far longer than a month!!) But just as much as I adore that showstopping dress, the grey tie-front top and dark denim shorts (aka wardrobe workhorse pieces) were exciting, unique, and easy to wear!
I didn’t have any special requests this time, but if a member would like to request specific items for an upcoming event, vacation, etc. they can simply notify their stylist through the website’s “Drop Your Stylist A Line” contact form! It’s a great way to make sure your monthly shipment is extra tailored for your life.
THE DEAL
Whether you’re looking for a wardrobe update for yourself or a loved one, The Mr. & Ms. Collection would be a great way to treat yourself or an awesome gift for your special someone. After all, Father’s Day is right around the corner! If you’d like to try The Mr. Collection or The Ms. Collection, use my code “kelirabonstyle” for 20% off your first month!
